Maybe my eyesight is going, (along with every thing else) BUT The Chain ring crank say DEPOSE and left side says MARQUE DEPOSSE! Is this correct for a 57. But a BEAUTY to behold. The frame all the talk is about has like the old Raleigh 1940s ish that I started out racing on, A VERY relaxed head angle the top tube slopes upward from the seat tube, Norris sent the link to the photos of the TDF Yellow bikes in the 30s and that bike also has the rear brake mounted the other side along with a tyre sweep,like the frame in question, WHY? Seems to me would promote brake shudder. John Crump OldbacktosleepBrit. Parker, Co USA
